Convert an Analog Paging Speaker Into an IP Speaker With Talk-Balk

PSA TB IP

HUDSON, WI – August 31, 2021

Viking Electronics’ new PSA-TB-IP analog to IP speaker adapter enables the re-use of analog speakers while adding talk-back capabilities.

“We think the new Viking model PSA-TB-IP is an easy cost-effective way to convert analog paging speakers into two-way IP talk-back speakers.”  – Greg Yocom, Engineering Manager, Viking Electronics

The PSA-TB-IP is equipped with a microphone to enable talk-back paging and silent monitoring of the area. It also monitors ambient noise levels to automatically adjust speaker volume. The built-in 6-Watt class D amplifier can be used to drive a connected paging speaker.

Easily mount the PSA-TB-IP magnetically to the back of an analog speaker magnet or use the included screws to attach the unit to the speaker frame using the 25/70V transformer mounting holes. Connect the speaker output of PSA-TB-IP to the input of the paging speaker. Then connect the PSA-TB-IP to an open port on a PoE switch and use Viking’s IP Programming software to enter SIP and network credentials. 

After the quick conversion, the speaker can then be used for two-way SIP endpoint paging or one-way multicast paging.
